Jeffrey Currie

Common card · No. 408257

Jeff Currie is an economist. He is currently co-founder and director of 1947 Oil and Gas, and formerly worked at Goldman Sachs. He rose to prominence during the 2000s by forecasting the commodity super-cycle and oil spiking above $100 a barrel. During the 2010s Currie was known for forecasting oil prices to stay 'lower for longer' to end the shale supply glut, whilst in more recent times his stance has shifted from bearish to considerably bullish, calling for a new commodities "supercycle" in late 2020 driven by underinvestment in supply, a process he has dubbed "the revenge of the old economy." In August 2023, Currie was appointed chair of the Advisory Group of The Energy Policy Institute at the University of Chicago (EPIC). In February 2024, Currie joined The Carlyle Group.
